Brentford returned to the premier league after 74 years with a 2-0 victory over Arsenal.

They were vibrant, skilful and energetic on a night of high emotion at the Brentford Community Stadium. It was the first premier league match they would play after 74 years and they really made it significant. Thomas Frank side inflicted serious pain on the Gunners in a 90 minutes game filled with sober for the visitors. Arsenal were without Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang through illness. They failed to impress their fans in the absence of these two. No doubt, Arsenal were woeful and Arteta must finsd a means to salvage the situation. Brentford now return to premier league to go top of table on first match of the season. A significant performance for them.
